666 Overboard
The Huan behind him pulled Xiao Jinyu away quickly.
Mrs. Gao was blinded, glanced over there with some curiosity, and asked Feng Qiao, "That's that?"
"A lost pilgrim. ”
After Feng Qiao said casually, he directly changed the topic and said, "Madame, have you put the river lantern?"
Mrs. Gao didn't think about it deeply, and said with a smile when she heard the words: "Of course let's let it go, isn't this why we came to this temple for this, speaking of which, this year's festival is more lively than in previous years, and I also saw the old lady of the Yongxin Marquis Mansion just now." The Yongxin Marquis Mansion had never come to these pujas before, and this year it was rare. ”
Yongxin Houfu is a family of military generals, most of the people in the house do not believe in gods and Buddhas, that Mrs. Xu was not even too lazy to go out of the city on the Buddha's birthday a few years ago, and did not think that this year's Obon Festival came to the temple.
Feng Qiao smiled when he heard this: "Xu is here to pay tribute to his relatives." ”
Xu Yu is a close confidant of Emperor Yongzhen, he helped Emperor Yongzhen ascended the throne in the early years, and later cleared the palace for Emperor Yongzhen to calm the chaos, and his hands were stained with many lives.
When you are young, you may not feel anything with your evil spirit, but when you are old and have no energy, you will inevitably feel timid when you dream back at midnight.
The death of the damned person is fine, but when the soul of the person who died in vain is unjust, who dares to say that he is worthy of his life?
After Feng Qiao and Mrs. Gao said a few words, the two walked forward along the edge of the death pool, and met many people who were familiar with Mrs. Gao along the way, and under Mrs. Gao's introduction, many people also knew Feng Qiao's identity, and Feng Qiao's side was lively for a while.
Feng Qiao has a humble attitude, no matter who talks to her, she listens very carefully with a smile on her face, and when someone asks, she will answer a few words from time to time.
The people around her who originally thought she had a proud temperament and didn't associate with people couldn't help but change their opinions in their hearts.
In the past, Feng Qiao rarely had contact with other mansions, and Feng Qizhou was indifferent, so many people sent posts to Rong Anbo's mansion were sent back.
At that time, Feng Qizhou always refused to go to the mansions on the grounds that Feng Qiao was not in good health, and the people in Beijing thought it was an excuse, but now it seems that this Feng Qiao has a peaceful temperament and is very easy to get along with, could it be that in the past few years, it is really because of his poor health, so he rarely interacts with other female relatives in the mansion?
One of them, Mrs. Zhong, said tentatively: "Two years ago, my house once handed a post to the county lord, but the county lord was not in good health at that time, but now he looks at the county lord in good spirits, it seems to be very good?"
Feng Qiao chuckled: "It's better than before, I'm such an impatient person, if it weren't for my bad health, I wouldn't have pushed the kindness of my wife before." ”
When Mrs. Zhong heard this, she immediately smiled and said: "That relationship is good, there will be a flower banquet in my house in a few days, and I invited the Lingjiao of Tongxiang to set up a stage, why don't you come and sit down with your face at that time?"
Feng Qiao smiled when he heard this: "Okay, when the time comes, Madam remember to send me a post, so that I can also join in the fun." ”
Mrs. Zhong was overjoyed when she heard this, and she replied vigorously and said that she would send the post to Wudao Lane when she went back.
The few people next to them saw that Feng Qiao had responded to the invitation of the Zhong family, and their hearts were a little nervous.
Although Feng Qiao's identity as the county lord is said to be a bit watery, after all, it was asked for by the eighth prince at the beginning, although His Majesty was not angry with her because of the eighth prince, but he didn't have much patience with this county lord in the end.
In the past few years, His Majesty has never summoned her into the palace, let alone mentioned her as the county lord for half a point, and it seems that he has never taken her to heart, but the power in the hands of her father Feng Qizhou is real, if she can really make friends with Rong Anbo's Mansion, it is a great thing.
For a while, other people also opened their mouths, and all kinds of names came as soon as they opened their mouths.
Feng Qiao just raised his lips and smiled, and did not accept the invitation from outside the Zhong family, only saying that he would visit their house if he had time.
Those people didn't get the promise, and they were a little disappointed.
Seeing this, Mrs. Gao smiled and said, "What did I say you are in a hurry, the county lord of Kangning has been living in the capital for a long time, and he will not leave in a few days, and there will be more time in the future, are you still afraid that she will not go to your mansion?"
Those few people thought about it after hearing this, as long as they opened this opening, they were afraid that there would be no contact in the future?
After a few people put their minds at ease, they laughed again.
When the Dharma boat in the rebirth pond burned out, Master Watarzan led the monks to the main hall to clean up the things left behind after the puja, while more than half of the other pilgrims stayed here to light the river lanterns.
There were dots in the rebirth pool, Feng Qiao and the others were adding incense money to the incense altar by the pool, while talking about interesting things in Beijing, when they were talking about the rise, the original bustling rebirth pool was suddenly chaotic, only after the sound of something falling into the water came, followed by a series of screams.
Several people were startled, and Mrs. Zhong panicked: "What's wrong, what's wrong?"
"It looks like someone has fallen overboard. ”
Mrs. Gao tiptoed to look over there, and saw the mess over there, and the Shen family of the Liu family, who was calm before, was standing by the pool with a confused expression and shouting to save people, and the one fluttering inside was even more familiar, she hesitated and said, "It seems to be the girl of the Liu family." ”
When they heard this, their faces were slight, and they hurriedly walked over there, and when they arrived, they saw a fan floating in the pool, and Liu Huiru was floating in it and constantly shouting for help.
"Save people, come quickly!!"
Shen's face turned pale, the tip of her nose was already in a cold sweat, and seeing that Liu Huiru's constantly struggling body had begun to sink, her expression became more and more flustered: "Huiru... Huiru, hold on, come on, is there anyone!!"
The lady standing next to her didn't want to go into the water, after all, although this rebirth pool is a pool, but it is not shallow, not to mention whether they will swim in the water, what about the reputation after falling into the water in front of everyone's eyes, and if the monks in the temple hear the movement when they come over, I am afraid that the person will be gone.
Just as Shen was in a hurry, Liu Minfang, who was originally standing aside, suddenly kicked off her shoes, she walked quickly to the edge of the pool and jumped, and the whole person jumped into the water with a "poof".
The people around were all startled by this movement, and Shen first hurriedly called "Minfang", seeing that Liu Minfang grabbed Liu Huiru, who had begun to sink, and swam back to this side, Xiaohuan, who was standing next to him, hurriedly poked over a piece of bamboo stick used when burning the boat.
"Miss, hold on to this!"
Liu Minfang stretched out his hand to grab the stick, and Xiaohuan dragged it upwards hard, and Shen and a few people next to him also hurriedly stepped forward to help, and when they finally pulled the two people in the water up, both of them were soaked.
Xiaohuan hurriedly took off her coat to cover Liu Minfang, but Liu Huiru was blue and curled up on the ground abnormally.
